Paternity Test

A legal paternity test can be used to establish the parenthood of an individual for a court case such as child support, social security, or child custody. The test can also be used to support placing a parent’s name on a birth certificate. EDC places the highest emphasis on following legal chain of custody with your sample, so your sample will be valid evidence in a legal setting. We employ the latest technology to provide the most accurate results for you. Our highly accurate tests exclude, on average, 99.99% of non-fathers. We provide safe, secure, and efficient transportation of your samples.

If you need paternity answers fast, but don’t need results for legal reasons like child support or custody, you can order an at-home DNA paternity test kit from EDC. We will ship the complete kit to you, then collect your DNA in the comfort of your own home with a simple cheek swab, and mail it directly to our CLIA-certified laboratory for processing. Results are available online in as quickly as 48 hours, once testing begins.

EDC’s technologically-advanced Non-Invasive Prenatal Paternity (NIPP) DNA test gives you accurate paternity answers without any risk to the baby or to you.
